About Us

You Smile, We Smile, They Smile

It's a motto that perfectly sums up our approach to fundraising, and we've produced a short video featuring a number of patients, relatives and staff, which shows some of the amazing projects that we've been able to fund. You may find it moving, emotional, uplifting, inspirational, or a combination of all those things, but we hope you will like it.

Already one of the most highly regarded neurological centres in the UK, the Wessex Neurological Centre (WNC) provides acute/specialist neurological care to patients from across Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, West Sussex, the Isle of Wight and the Channel Islands - an area with a population of around 3 million people. Brain Tumour, Brain Injury, Stroke, Alzheimer’s, Epilepsy, Spinal Injury, Brain Haemorrhage, Hydrocephalus, Motor Neurone Disease, Sleep Disorders, Dementia.... these are just a few of the conditions that are treated at the centre, and you may already appreciate the wonderful work that is done there. With your help we can make it even better, by ensuring that the WNC is equipped with the very best technology and facilities available to benefit those requiring the expert care it provides.

Please do take a few minutes to explore more of this site, which contains a wealth of information about the Smile4Wessex Appeal, the projects we fund, our busy and varied calendar of fundraising events, and how you can become involved in supporting the WNCT.
